THE  COMMITTEE  ON  LABOR. 

[Including  Conservation  and  Welfare  of  Workers.] 
Samuel  Gompers,  Cliairman. 

Organization  of  the  Committee  on  Labor,  of  the  Advisory  Commission,  Council 
of  National  Defense — Its  Objects  and  Preliminary  Outline  of  its  Scope  of  Work 
and  Personnel. 


The  Committee  on  Labor,  Samuel  Gompers,  chairman,  forms  one  of 
the  seven  divisions  of  the  work  of  the  Advisory  Commission,  Council 
of  National  Defense.  Its  objects,  in  general  terms,  are:  (a)  to  advise 
in  regard  to  the  conservation  and  welfare  of  the  workers  in  the 
nation's  industries,  and  (b)  to  advise  in  regard  to  means  of  adjust- 
ment of  employment  problems  without  interruption  of  industry. 

The  chairman  of  the  Committee  on  Labor  called  a  meeting  for 
organization  purposes  in  Washington,  April  2,  1917.  More  than  150 
were  in  attendance  at  this  meeting — labor  representatives  and  em- 
ployers in  the  leading  industries  of  the  country.  There  were  present 
officers  and  executive  committee  members  of  the  American  Federation 
of  Labor,  presidents  or  representatives  of  the  leading  international 
unions  and  of  the  railway  brotherhoods,  representatives  of  the 
National  Association  of  Manufacturers,  and  of  a  wide  range  of  com- 
mercial, transportation,  financial,  and  civic  interests. 

The  entire  day  and  part  of  the  night  were  occupied  in  discussion  of 
problems  of  industrial  mobilization,  with  special  reference  to  labor. 
It  became  clear  that  on  the  issue  of  national  defense  a  remarkable 
unity  of  purpose  had  developed  among  these  many  diverse  groups, 
which  it  would  be  possible  to  utilize  to  practical  ends  through  the 
formation  of  this  committee  of  the  Advisory  Commission.  A  strong 
disposition  was  manifest  to  avoid  the  unfortunate  industrial  expe- 
riences of  England  in  the  opening  months  of  the  war. 

Explanatory. — By  an  act  of  the  Sixty-fourth  Congress  (Army  appropriation  bill, 
H.  R.  17498,  Public  No.  242,  approved  Aug.  29,  1916)  there  was  created— 

(1)  A  Council  of  National  Defense,  consisting  of  the  Secretary  of  War,  the  Secretary 
of  the  Navy,  the  Secretary  of  the  Interior,  the  Secretary  of  Agriculture,  the  Secretary 
of  Commerce,  and  the  Secretary  of  Labor. 

(2)  An  Advisory  Commission  to  the  Council  of  National  Defense,  to  be  appointed 
by  the  President  of  the  United  States. 

The  members  of  the  Advisory  Commission,  appointed  by  the  President,  with  the 
assignment  of  each  as  chairman  of  a  committee,  are  as  follows: 

Franklin  H.  Martin,  medicine,  including  general  sanitation. 

Samuel  Gompers,  labor,  including  conservation  of  health  and  welfare  of  workers. 

Daniel  Willard,  transportation  and  communication. 

Hollis  Godfrey,  science  and  research,  including  engineering  and  education. 

Bernard  Baruch,  raw  materials,  minerals  and  metals. 

Howard  Coffin,  munitions,  manufacturing,  including  standardization  and  industrial 
relations. 

Julius  Rosenwald,  supplies,  including  food,  clothing,  etc.

4         couintcil  of  nattonal  defense^  committee  on  labor. 

A  permanent  organization  was  formed,  and  an  executive  com- 
mittee named,  of  11  members.  This  executive  committee  during 
the  first  month  held  five  all-day  sessions,  and  developed  a  working 
plan  of  organization  which  in  respect  to  some  of  the  most  important 
matters  confronting  the  committee  is  ready  for  service  if  the  Council 
shall  so  require.  Eight  national  committees  have  been  appointed,  of 
which  those  whose  plans  are  furthest  advanced  are  the  committees  in 
relation  to  wages  and  hours,  mediation  and  conciliation,  women  in 
industry,  and  welfare  work,  the  latter  including  safety,  sanitation, 
industrial  training  and  kindred  subjects  outlined  in  detail  on  a  sub- 
sequent page.  The  principle  upon  which  these  features  of  welfare 
work  is  based,  in  the  committee's  assigned  task,  is  that  the  health, 
welfare,  and  efficiency  of  the  workers  in  the  vital  industries  upon 
which  all  else  depends  are  fundamental  resources  which  should  be 
conserved  in  the  interest  of  the  national  defense. 

The  chairman  and  many  of  the  members  of  these  national  com- 
mittees are  giving  their  time  and  abilities  freely  as  a  patriotic  service 
to  the  Government.  There  are  also  in  course  of  organization  a 
number  of  subcommittees,  through  which  the  voluntary  services  of 
experts  and  technicians  in  several  fields  are  available. 

In  addition,  support  and  cooperation  have  been  pledged  to  the 
Committee  on  Labor  by  a  large  number  of  national  and  local  organiza- 
tions, both  of  labor  and  of  industry,  and  representing  various  civic 
and  technical  fields.  Among  these  are  the  American  Federation  of 
Labor,  the  National  Association  of  Manufacturers,  the  American  Insti- 
tute of  Architects,  the  National  Fire  Prevention  Association,  the 
National  Board  of  Fire  Underwriters,  the  Illuminating  Engineering 
Society,  the  National  Council  of  Safety,  the  American  Museum  of 
Safety,  the  National  Consumers'  League,  the  National  Child  Labor 
Committee,  the  American  Association  of  Industrial  Physicians  and 
Surgeons,  the  American  Public  Health  Association,  the  Young  Men's 
Christian  Association,  the  National  Civic  Federation,  especially  its 
departments  on  welfare  work,  mediation,  and  conciliation,  industrial 
accident  prevention,  and  social  insurance;  bureau  of  registration  and 
information  of  the  National  League  for  Women's  Service,  the  National 
Association  for  the  Promotion  of  Industrial  Education,  the  Mining 
and  Metallurgical  Society  of  America,  the  Washington  Department  of 
the  Technology  Clubs,  associated;  the  American  Society  of  Heating 
and  Ventilating  Engineers,  and  the  Joint  Conference  of  Coal  Miners 
and  Operators  of  Illinois,  Indiana,  Ohio,  and  western  Pennsylvania. 

The  Enghsh  experience  in  dealing  with  employment  problems  of 
the  utmost  gravity,  which  arose  under  the  early  war  stress,  has  been 
placed  at  the  disposal  of  the  Committee  on  Labor  by  a  commission  of 
four  representatives  of  English  labor  and  of  welfare  work  who  visited 
this  country  in  response  to  the  cabled  request  of  Chairman  Gompers 
to  Premier  Lloyd  George.     The  members  of  this  commission  were: 

Right  Hon.  C.  W.  Bowerman,  privy  councillor  and  member  of 
British  House  of  Commons;  secretary  of  British  Trades  Union  Con- 
gress parliamentary  committee. 

James  H.  Thomas,  privy  councillor,  member  of  Parliament ;  general 
secretary  National  Union  of  Railwaymen,  Great  Britain  and  Ireland. 

Joseph  Davies,  member  of  the  secretariat  of  the  prime  minister. 

H.  W.  Garrod,  representing  labor,  department  of  ministry  of  muni- 
tions. , 


COUNCIL  OF  NATIONAL  DEFENSE,  COMMITTEE  ON  LABOR.  5 

These  gentlemen  were  in  frequent  conference  with  executive  com- 
mittee members  of  the  Committee  on  Labor  during  their  stay,  and 
were  joined  by  two  Canadian  representatives  of  labor  sent  by  the 
Government  of  Canada,  also  in  response  to  Mr.  Gompers'  request, 
namely : 

J.  C.  Waters,  president  of  the  Trades  and  Labor  Council  of  Canada, 
and  Giddeon  D.  Robertson,  vice  president  of  the  National  Association 
of  Railway  Telegraphers. 

Both  the  English  and  Canadian  commissioners  were  heard  at  length 
at  a  public  session  of  the  Committee  on  Labor  on  May  15,  attended  by 
about  200  members  and  extending  well  into  the  night.  The  discus- 
sion at  this  meeting  proved  of  high  practical  value  and  was  partici- 
pated in  further  by  «Judge  Maurice  Sheldon  Amos,  of  the  British 
commission;  James  Duncan,  representing  labor  on  the  commission  to 
Russia;  John  D.  Rockefeller,,  jr. ;  Daniel  Guggenheim;  John  R.  Alpine, 
president  Plumbers  and  Steamfitters'  Association;  Emerson  Mc- 
Millin;  Arthur  O.  Wharton,  president  railway  employees'  department, 
American  Federation  of  Labor;  Theodore  Marburg;  George  W.  Perkins, 
president  International  Cigarmakers'  Union;  Juha  C.  Lathrop,  Chief 
of  Children's  Bureau,  Department  of  Labor;  Colgate  Hoyt;  Miss  Sara 
A.  Conboy,  secretary  United  Textile  Workers;  former  Ambassador 
Myron  T.  Herrick;  John  H.  Patterson,  president  National  Cash 
Register  Co.,  and  others. 

The  committee  and  its  guests  were  received  at  the  Wliite  House  by 
President  Wilson,  who  expressed  his  personal  interest  in  the  work  of 
the  committee  and  his  desire  to  cooperate  in  furtherance  of  its  objects  • 
Speaking  particularly  of  the  committee's  declared  object  of  maintain- 
ing established  standards  for  the  protection  of  labor  the  President 
said: 

I  have  been  very  much  alarmed  at  one  or  two  things  that  have  happened — at  the 
apparent  inclination  of  the  legislatures  of  one  or  two  of  our  States  to  set  aside  even 
temporarily  the  laws  which  have  safeguarded  the  standards  of  labor  and  of  life.  I 
t'link  nothing  would  be  more  deplorable  than  that.  We  are  trying  to  fight  in  a  cause 
which  means  the  lifting  of  the  standards  of  hfe,  and  we  can  fight  in  that  cause  best  by 
voluntary  cooperation.  I  do  not  doubt  that  any  body  of  men  representing  labor  in 
this  country  speaking  for  their  fellows  will  be  willing  to  make  any  sacrifice  that  is 
necessary  in  order  to  carry  this  contest  to  a  successful  issue,  and  in  that  confidence  I 
feel  that  it  would  be  inexcusable  if  we  deprived  men  and  women  of  such  a  spirit  of 
any  of  the  existing  safeguards  of  law.  Therefore,  I  shall  exercise  my  influence  as  far 
as  it  goes  to  see  that  that  does  not  happen  and  that  the  sacrifices  we  make  shall  be  made 
voluntarily  and  not  under  the  compulsion  which  mistakenly  is  interpreted  to  mean  a 
lowering  of  the  standards  which  we  have  sought  through  so  many  generations  to  bring 
to  their  present  level. 

Under  the  auspices  of  the  Committee  on  Labor  the  British  repre- 
sentatives of  labor  visited  some  of  the  great  industrial  centers  of  the 
country,  includhig  particularly  New  York,  Pittsburgh,  Chicago,  Cleve- 
land, Albany,  Schenectady,  and  Boston.  On  this  tour  they  gave  to 
the  industrial  situation  in  this  country,  as  it  faces  the  problems  cre- 
ated by  the  war,  the  benefit  of  their  experience  and  counsel  both  in 
public  meetings  and  in  joint  conferences  with  labor  representatives, 
employers,  and  others  engaged  prominently  in  civic  and  economic 
affairs. 

The '  Committee  on  Labor,  including  its  national  committees  and 
subcommittees,  has  now  a  membership  of  about  375.  The  scope 
of  the  proposed  work  of  certain  committees  is  indicated  in  the  outline 
given  in  the  following  pages,  which  of  necessity  can  not  convey  an 
adequate  impression  of  the  far-reaching  extent  and  significance  oi  the

subjects  involved.  In  certain  respects  the  organization  work  of  the 
committee  has  been  delayed  by  lack  of  adequate  office  facihties,  but 
suitable  provision  has  now  been  made  on  the  tenth  floor  of  the 
Munsey  Building,  in  Washington. 

The  committee  recommended  to  the  Council  of  National  Defense^ 
in  connection  with  the  recent  conference  of  State  governors  in  Wash- 
ington, that  State  committees  on  labor  similar  in  scope  to  the  national 
committee  be  included  in  the  plans  of  organization  of  State  councils 
which  may  be  formed  or  are  already  at  work,  with  a  request  for  co- 
operation by  the  State  labor  committees  so  formed  with  the  national 
Committee  on  Labor.  Such  State  labor  committees  would  afford  an 
additional  means  of  utilizing  throughout  the  country  the  offers  of 
assistance  and  cooperation  which  are  being  received  by  the  Com- 
mittee on  Labor  in  increasing  volume. 

The  Committee  on  Labor  recommended  to  the  Advisory  Commis- 
sion a  declaration,  which  was  in  turn  referred  to  the  Council  of 
National  Defense,  regarding  the  maintenance  of  industrial  and  legis- 
lative standards.  The  Council  of  National  Defense  approved  and 
made  the  same  public.  Finding  that  the  purpose  and  intent  of  the 
declaration  was  misinterpreted,  the  Committee  on  Labor  recom- 
mended to  the  Advisory  Commission  and  to  the  Council  of  National 
Defense  the  adoption  of  an  amplification  of  the  declaration.  The 
text  of  the  original  declaration  and  of  the  subsequent  amphfication 
here  follows : 

4 

Resolution  Adopted  at  Meeting  of  Executive  Committee,  Committee  on  Labor. 
[As  approved  by  Advisory  Commission  and  Council  of  National  Defense,  Apr.  6, 1917.] 

The  defense  and  safety  of  the  Nation  must  be  the  first  consideration  of  all  patriotic 
citizens.  To  avoid  confusion  and  facilitate  the  preparation  for  national  defense  and 
give  a  stable  basis  upon  which  the  representatives  of  the  Government  may  operate 
during  the  war,  we  recommend : 

First.  That  the  Council  of  National  Defense  should  issue  a  statement  to  employers 
and  employees  in  our  industrial  plants  and  transportation  systems  advising  that 
neither  employers  nor  employees  shall  endeavor  to  take  advantage  of  the  country's 
necessities  to  change  existing  standards.  When  economic  or  other  emergencies  arise 
requiring  changes  of  standards,  the  same  should  be  made  only  after  such  proposed 
changes  have  been  investigated  and  approved  by  the  Council  of  National  Defense. 

Second.  That  the  Council  of  National  Defense  urge  upon  the  legislatures  of  the 
States,  as  well  as  all  administrative  agencies  charged  with  the  enforcement  of  labor 
and  health  laws,  the  great  duty  of  rigorously  maintaining  the  existing  safeguards  as 
to  the  health  and  the  welfare  of  workers,  and  that  no  '  departure  from  such  present 
standards  in  State  laws  or  State  rulings  affecting  labor  should  be  taken  without  a 
declaration  of  the  Council  of  National  Defense  that  such  a  departure  is  essential  for 
the  effective  pursuit  of  the  national  defense. 

Third.  That  the  Council  of  National  Defense  urge  upon  the  legislatures  of  the 
several  States  that  before  final  adjournment  they  delegate  to  the  governors  of  their 
respective  States  the  power  to  suspend  or  modify  restrictions  contained  in  their  labor 
laws  when  such  suspension  or  modification  shall  be  requested  by  the  Council  of 
National  Defense;  and  such  suspensions  or  modifications  when  made  shall  continue 
for  a  specified  period  and  not  longer  than  the  duration  of  the  war. 

Amplification  of  Declaration. 
[Adopted  by  executive  committee  Apr.  16, 1917.] 

There  seems  to  be  some  misunderstanding  of  the  scope  of  the  statement  made  by 
the  Council  of  National  Defense  when  it  advised  "that  neither  employers  nor  em- 
ployees shall  endeavor  to  take  advantage  of  the  country's  necessities  to  change  existing 
standards."  In  order  that  that  misunderstanding  may  be  removed,  the  following 
amplification  is  made: 

1  "No  departure  from  present  standards"  was  intended  to  mean  "no  lowering  of  present  standards." 


COUNCIL  OF  NATIONAL  DEFENSE,  COMMITTEE  ON  LABOR.  7 

There  have  been  established  by  legislation,  by  mutual  agreement  between  employ 
ers  and  employees,  or  by  custom  certain  standards  constituting  a  day's  work.  These 
vary  from  7  hours  per  day  in  some  kinds  of  work  to  12  hours  per  day  in  continuous 
operation  plants.  The  various  States  and  municipalities  have  established  specific 
standards  of  safety  and  sanitation  and  have  pro\dded  inspection  service  to  enforce 
the  regulations.  They  have  also  established  maximum  hours  of  work  for  women  and 
minimum  age  limits  for  children  employed  in  gainful  occupations.  It  is  the  judgment 
of  the  Council  of  National  Defense  that  the  Federal,  State,  and  municipal  governments 
should  continue  to  enforce  the  standards  tliey  have  established  unless  and  until  the 
Council  of  National  Defense  has  determined  that  some  modifications  or  change  of 
standards  is  essential  to  the  national  safety;  that  employers  and  employees  in  private 
industries  should  not  attempt  to  take  advantage  of  the  existing  abnormal  conditions 
to  change  the  standards  which  they  were  unable  to  change  under  normal  conditions. 

The  one  other  standard  that  the  council  had  in  mind  was  the  standard  of  living.  It 
recognizes  that  the  standard  of  living  is  indefinite  and  difficult  to  determine,  because 
it  is  in  a  measure  dependent  upon  the  purchasing  power  of  wages.  It  believes,  how- 
ever, that  no  arbitrary  change  in  wages  should  be  sought  at  this  time  by  either  em- 
ployers or  employees  through  the  process  of  strikes  or  lockouts  without  at  least  giving 
the  established  agencies,  including  those  of  the  several  States  and  of  the  Government, 
and  of  the  mediation  board  in  the  transportation  service  and  the  Division  of  Concilia- 
tion of  the  Department  of  Labor  in  the  other  industries,  an  opportunity  to  adjust  the 
difficulties  without  a  stoppage  of  work  occurring.  Wliile  the  Council  of  National 
Defense  does  not  mean  to  intimate  that  under  ordinary  circumstances  the  efficiency 
of  workers  is  the  only  element  that  should  be  taken  into  consideration  in  fixing  the 
hours  of  labor,  safety,  sanitation,  women's  work,  and  child  labor  standards,  such  effi- 
ciency is  the  object  that  must  be  attained  during  the  period  when  the  Nation's  safety 
is  involved.  It  may  therefore  be  necessary  for  the  council  as  a  result  of  its  investi- 
gations and  experience  to  suggest  modifications  and  changes  in  these  standards  during 
that  time.  It  is  not  the  purpose  of  the  council,  however,  to  undertake  to  determine 
the  wage  rate  that  will  be  sufficient  to  maintain  the  existing  standards  of  living.  Such 
questions  as  can  not  be  adjusted  by  private  negotiations  should  be  referred  to  the 
mediation  agencies  above  referred  to  or  to  such  other  constituted  agencies  as  may 
exist  to  the  end  that  such  questions  may  be  adjusted  in  an  orderly  and  equitable 
manner  to  avoid  the  stoppage  of  industries  which  are  so  \dtal  to  the  interests  of  the 
Nation  at  this  critical  time.

Resolutions  Adopted  at  the  First  Meeting  of  the  Committee  on  Women  in 

Industry. 

I.  standard. 

Resolved,  That  we  reiterate  the  statement  of  the  labor  committee  of  the  Council 
of  National  Defense,  that  in  the  interest  of  health,  output,  and  peace  in  industry- 
there  should  be  no  movement  to  relax  existing  labor  standards,  especially  in  regard 
to  hours  of  labor  and  weekly  day  of  rest. 

II.  married  women  with  young  children. 

Besolved,  That  we  view  with  alarm  the  increase  of  employment  of  married  women 
with  young  children,  and  believe  that  efforts  should  be  made  to  stem  this  movement 
as  far  as  practicable,  especially  as  regards  night  work,  and  that  these  women  should 
be  the  last  to  enter  into  industry. 

Since  women  in  their  generous  impulse  to  render  service  are  offering  to  enter  indus- 
try, therefore  be  it — 

III.    NOT   taking    place    OF    WAGE    EARNERS. 

Resolved,  That  their  attention  be  called  to  the  danger  of  undercutting  existing 
wage  standards  and  of  displacing  workers  dependent  on  tlieir  own  earnings.
